I did not go to DC because i did not want to get the green card this way.I grew upwatching aunts,uncles coming from USA bearing gifts.I grew up watching cousins go for USA for higher studies.It used to be so special. Now its become so cheap. Now you guys have literally taken it to the streets. There's no difference between those illegal immigrants and us. This H1visa has ruined it for really smart students who come here on F1 with full scholarship.
This software industry and these cheap bodyshopping companies made it nothing more than a whore business.
My heart is broken. I dont care anymore.thats why i did not come to DC.

Although I raised questions about the donations earlier I thought it was time to donate as I was impressed with the email Senator feature and have been helped by IV thru various threads.
 
Hence I donated $50 to IV !!
 
I would encourage other non donors to donate as well......its time we all did instead of questioning IV.

The President can approve/veto any proposed Bill....his opinion matters much to Congress!
 
Yes and he can speed up the processing as well. All it takes is a direction to homeland security director.

I have got an RFE for 485 application. USCIS is asking me for Employment Letter, Paystubs and W2 for the employer I NEVER worked. (I have typed exact message below)
*
This is my situation-
I worked for 'Employer #1' from Jan-2000 to Jan-2005
Then I started working with 'Employer #2' from Jan-2005 to present. Employer #2 filed my H1/Labor/140/485. I am still working for Employer #2
*
However, I thought of changing job in 2006 and 'Employer X' offered me a job and sponsored my H1 and it got approved too, but I changed my mind and decided to continue with my current employer (Employer #2) and I am still with Employer #2. Please note my latest H1B was sponsored by “Employer X”, but I never worked for this Employer.
*
Please advice-
1) What should I send to USCIS? As I don’t have (can’t get) Employment Letter, Paystubs and W2 for “Employer X”
2) Would you consider this as simple case or complicated?
3) Should I hire attorney? (I self filed my 485 in July-2007)
*
*
This is the exact text - (changed Employer names)
Service records indicate that you were granted an H1-B nonimmigrant worker classification for employment from DEC 11, 2006 to DEC 11, 2009 for “Employer X"-. However, according to the G-325a submitted with your application, you had only worked for "Employer #1" from Jan-2000 to Jan-2005 and for the "Employer #2" from Jan-2005 to the present. Please provide evidence that you were employed with “Employer X". Such evidence may include copies of: employment letter, pay stubs or w2s
 
Thank you for your time and help.
 
Ask your attorney to write a letter in response to RFE and explaining the situation you never took the job with employer X though the H1B transfer or new is approved, this will clear the query of USCIS. One catch, you should have maintained a continuous employment with #2 and demonstrate the same to USCIS. Good luck!
 
Note H1 to L1, H4 to H1, L1 to H1 is completely different, it is change of status - H1 to H1 is not change of status, so there is no question that you recent h1 is valid and past is invalid. Get an attorney, Good weekend

I requested (actually begged) my employer and attorney to pursue EB1 as well - they said no - lawyer's response is EB1 is very difficult and you should be someone of nobel prize calibre etc.etc.
...
I went ahead with another private attorney to submit another EB1 I140 separately which is still pending.
I understand your self-petition is in EB1-EA ("extraordinary ability") category, right? If your employer's lawyer had to file EB1 on your behalf, she/he had to do this in either EB1-OR ("outstanding researcher") or EB1-ET ("executive transferee") category, depending on whether you are employed in academics or industry. That may mean more paperwork for the lawyer and/or expense for the employer, which might explain their reluctance in pursuing that option. And in general, a lawyer hired by your employer does not always have your best interest in mind (unless it coincides with the interest of your employer).

Is there anyway we can work on reporting fraud desi consulting companies to the USCIS so the fraud EB applications can be cleaned up from the system? That may help in clearing up the backlog. Believe it or not, many fraud desi firms have sponsored people in EB-2 successfully. I have worked with many such IT 'professionals' who can't speak a word of English and hardly have any idea what's going around them. I am serious here, this should be considered and evaluated. No offence meant to anyone but those who have had a wonderful educational background and don't work for desi 'firms' ought not to worry since this doesn't target them at all. I am just tired of fellow country men/women who have diminished our country's image, especially in the IT industry and am trying to think of solutions in addition to what we already have on IV's agenda.
 
Is english speaking required to qualify for EB2 ? who diminished the country image ? In our company Indians are highly regarded and yes most of us work for desi companies . Dont blame others just becasue your company dont sponsor in EB2.

The basic idea behind this approach is to channel all the negative energy into something positive.
Here is what me and my wife are doing. When the retrogression first hit us in 2005 January we were both devastated even more so because one my friend and his wife, with same the same priority date as ours and similar EB3 RIR got the Green Card on 24 Dec 2004. We would not have been so frustrated if they had the priority date even a month or so before us. But some are just lucky I guess. Coming back to what we are doing. My wife started her masters and finished in May this year. She could have finished in December but we were really banking on the CIR in May so she took more courses and finished it faster. Well that did not happen so whats next. So now I will be starting school again for second Masters this time MBA from one of the top10 B schools in January 2007. Ideally I wanted to do Full Time because its shorter duration as compared to part time but GC God (I wish there was one like that so that I can do the "Nariyal Pooja" or "Mundan" or "Abhishek") had otherr wishes so I have now switched from full time to part time. Lets see if my part time MBA of 4 years wins the race or Green Card wins the racce against time.
Moral of the story. Channelize your energy into something positive and get masters or second for that matter, or learn a new language, enroll in classes to learn languages that run for 6 months at community classees by the time you get your GC you will know atleast a dozen languages.
Lage Raho GC Bhai....

OP was never out of status as he was working for one of the employers on proper work authorization all the time. The only question is whether employer X canceled H1 ?Even if they didn't, it is employer's problem not OP's.
 
Anyways it is better to respond to this query through a lawyer.
 
Thanks gc28262.
 
I was all the time in valid status. I was legal with 'employer #1' H1B and before it expires, I got H1B from 'employer #2', before 'employer #2' H1b expires, I got EAD (used with Employer #2 and still with 'employer #2').
 
At some point while with my current employer (employer #2), I thought of changing job and 'employer x' sponsored my H1b (I do not know if it is new H1 or transferred), but changed mind, and continued work with 'employer #2'. 'Employer #2' did not cancel my H1B at any time. I have called 'Employer X' and he said my H1B was canceled last week.
 
Thank you

Same sex marriage couples cannot sponser for GC?
But they can get Insurance coverage and family benifits from the state.
May be USCIS to prevent malpractice by the people to get the GC.
 
Wait a minute....are you saying that USCIS doesn't want ppl to falsify a perm residency application by faking a same-sex marriage and therefore there are no immigration benefits for same-sex couples?
 
Wow....let me share this with you: USCIS doesn't make up these rules; it stems from a US Law called DOMA - Defense of Marriage Act which only offers the 1,152 federal benefits of marriage to hetersexual couples.
 
The statement you make is rather disheartening; it implies that there is no falsification of heterosexual marriages today in an attempt to get a GC. It also implies that heterosexuals would fake a same-sex marriage to get a GC.... do you really think it is easy to fake any marriage? To what extent would a heterosexual man or woman endure and fake a same-sex relationship to get a GC? Be realistic, each and every marriage or "permanent partnership as contemplated by the UAFA bill" have to and "would have to" prove a valid relationship before a GC can be approved for that case by the IO at the time of interview.
 
This dialogue has veered off course from the main subject of this thread - I apologize for that. But sometimes sharing information can help enlighten others. Thanks for your patience with me.

Looks like the Leadership of the house is changing.
Interestingly I heard one of the republican commentators comment that whatever happens, including if the republicans lose there will be a change in the house minority republican leadership, he was putting forward people like Pence and Shadegg as the new leaders(they have been pro SKIL bill). In other words, No Hastert, No Sensenbrenner etc in the committees.
Interestingly in the districts that republicans ran anti-immigrant platform, they lost badly. One of the bellweathers districts for that in Arizona, Candidate Graf(who got the republican nomination by his very hard anti illegal immigration platform) lost heavily to a democrat who is pro CIR. There are many more such examples (Sen. Santorum is another example). Thse results bode well for legislation as long as the issue comes up for debate again in this congressional year.
Who knows, now the house republicans might even be willing to consider it in the lame duck session, as atleast they will get to have some say in it. Will be interesting in the next few months.

kaka,
 
You have so far been saying "nobody will get GC... it is a scam..."
 
Now that there is a chance someone will get GC with a new House, do you still go with your "win-win" stand?
 
Will you change your course too and say something new?
 
Kaka no offense meant here....just a joke.
 
In words of the President " He will stay the course"
 
Cheers
Nat

Guys while thinking more about this... why not approach EEOC and it will be cheaper. The commission was created to protect employee's rights. 
 
Someone with EB2 from 2004 or EB3 from 2001 should be able to convince EEOC that he was forced to have same or similar jobs for a long time because of long wait for green card while at the same time people from other countries did not have any such hinderances in their career advancement. Therefore, the country quota in employment based green card category leads to discrimation at work.
 
Here are the contact details of EEOC:
